By Rule ...

If you choose to talk to the head coach, start off every sentence with, "Coach, by rule ..."

Also, there are coaches that have never read a rule book, and think that there are hundreds of rules, not just ten, so when questioned about a call, you may be able to get away with, "Coach, that was an easy call. Rule four". He'll be impressed that you've been able to memorize hundreds of rules by number, which may shut him up. Seriously, this has worked for me, but only with ignorant coaches, which are the worst kind.
